Email marketing metrics - what should I expect?
An adult is said to make, on average, 35,000 decisions per day. If you chose right instead of left this morning your route to work, your time of arrival, the people you said hello to - everything would be different.
Email marketing is one of those true blends between an Art and a Science. Every factor is an influence and there are no hard rules for what is successful and what isn't.
Typically there are 3 main measured of email marketing success:
Deliverability
Open Rate
Clickthrough Rate
One of the largest influencing factors is w**hat type of data are you sending to?
This may seem obvious but when sending to 'customer' data on 99% of occasions you will achieve a higher response rate than when sending out to a 'cold' or 'prospect' database.
Your customers are likely to have familiarity with your brand and be open to receiving email communication.
Listed below are some additional influencing factors:
What should I expect?**
Typically for a B2B cold email marketing campaign, purchased from a reputable source. We would expect this to achieve between an 8% - 12% open rate and between a 0.8% - 1.2% clickthrough rate.
To organically grown data, a mix between customer and prospect we would anticipate these results to be higher. Circa. 20%(+) Open and 3%(+) Click.
When done well bulk email marketing is probably the most powerful form of outbound marketing activity. We see campaigns of varying success run on a daily basis and should therefore be well placed to advise.
